Star 1. This is a very important idea, learning about methods and approaches to  implement coding to the curriculum.
Start 2. Teaching mathematics grade 9, de-stream is a new challenge. Coding component  is not well defined, and it  might be overwhelming for new teachers, and students. learning those techniques will be helping to support the coding needs of students for the post-secondary schools.
Wish:
You may add more interactive visualization features  on the pages, adding some photos, etc.

Per Review-Hardev (Seyed)
Start #1: I like the originality of topic, which is coding in R language for high school  students. It is well structured and  provides comprehensive  resources for learning R.

Star 2:   The background has a good contrast, which enables students to read and practice.

Wish:
maybe include less text, and adding more colors to that, adding picture and , interactive visualization features , to more it more interactive/ attractive.

Star #1: I really like that your final product is a poster because I feel like you could easily use it in the future, either posting it in your own classroom, office, or the staff room.

Star #2: I like how you tackle the question from many angles including society as a whole. It is easy to fall into a pattern of only viewing it from one perspective/angle. Your posts were also very readable and included some great calls to action.

Wish #1: On the main screen, the sidebar gets squished and so does your photo and name. Besides that small design flaw, everything was beautifully laid out!

# data[].attributes.body
Star 1: I love your writing in your blog posts! It shows so much personality and that you really made this project your own.
Star 2: I think it's great that almost every single blog post had a video or two to go along with it.
Wish: There was a technical issue with your product page - every time I clicked next slide it would scroll me back up the page which was slightly annoying. I think it's because you embedded the slideshow too big? It's no big deal - maybe I'm the only person who suffered from this.
